Just retired the FD from daily driving and was wondering:

How often should I start/drive it?

TIA

 

Anybody? Please tell me the Talon vs. RX7 thread is more important...

 

It is.

 

I'd start it up at least once a week and maybe take it around the block to let her warm up.

 

That's sad. But cool, whatever.

 

Thanks. That's what I'll do.

 

Drive it 10min at least once a week - If it is going to sit more than a month w/o driving disconect the battery.

 

Thanks. I won't leave it sit that long... Just a couple days at a time.

But if I ever were to park it for a while... What would you recommend doing with the gas? Leaving it really low? Or cyphoning it out and refiilling it?

 

Drop it off at my place and I'll take care of it for you

 

jdhuegel1,

Mine sits every winter (in this area, usually Dec -> March). I start it about once a month and let it run to operating temperature.

As for now having a daily driver, as long as you don't have the car sitting for a year, you shouldn't need to do anything out of the ordinary.

 

Haha... Yeah. Will you rebuild it too? LOL...

 

Thanks!

 

Once a week for 15 minutes until the car is competely wamed up long enough to evaporate any mositure in the exhaust system etc.

Highway driving is best.

 

i usually drive to a beach area at night once a week or so. its about 90mile round trip. for me, its another way of having fun in my FD.
